Abstract
|
Before
Using an online laboratory experiment, this study investigates
(1) how the advice given varies based on the gender of the advisor and advisee and the type of environment (tournament vs piece-rate), and (2) the impact of advisor-advisee gender match on advisee's propensity to follow advice as well as their test choice (math vs verbal).

After
Using an online laboratory experiment, this study investigates the impact of advisor-advisee gender match on advisee's propensity to follow advice as well as their test choice (math vs verbal).

Primary Outcomes (End Points)
|
Before
Whether a subject advises taking math or verbal test in the advisor experiment
Whether a subject choose the non-stereotypical test in the advisee experiment

Primary Outcomes (Explanation)
|
Before
Whether a subject advises taking math or verbal test in the advisor experiment
Whether a subject choose the non-stereotypical test in the advisee experiment (math test is the non-stereotypical test for females and verbal test is the non-stereotypical test for males)
Whether a subject follows advice in the advisee experiment (defined as choice of advisee being the same with the advice of the advisor)
|
After
Whether a subject choose the non-stereotypical test in the advisee experiment (math test is the non-stereotypical test for females and verbal test is the non-stereotypical test for males)
Whether a subject follows advice in the advisee experiment (defined as choice of advisee being the same with the advice of the advisor)

Experimental Design (Public)
|
Before
Advisor Experiment: Advisors will take a test in which they will answer some math and verbal questions. Then, they will give advice to the other participants of the research study on whether they should choose to complete the math portion or the verbal portion of the test under different scenarios. Their advice will be provided to another participant of the research study.
Advisee Experiment: Advisees will answer 4 math and verbal questions. Then, they will be given a choice between choosing math or verbal portion of a new but similar test. Some of these advisees will receive advice on what to do before they make their choice. Advisor characteristics will be orthogonal to the advice received.
Both advisor experiment and advisee experiment are incentivized.
